See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge Summary: Encrypt each Anon-To within the previous remailer's message. [For a step-by-step explanation of remailing with cypherpunk remailers, see FAQ 3.3. For an explanation of chaining, see the post below, or follow John Hull's example: <http://saddle.yoll.net/anon/handrolling.html> An explanation is also in the help file from almost any remailer (under the heading "REMAIL REQUEST: CYPHERPUNK CHAIN" for most Reliable remailers). Send a blank email message to a remailer with "remailer-help" (without the quotes) as the subject, or see Frog's Thesaurus Data <http://www.privacyresources.org/frogadmin/Thesaurus/Thesaurus.html>. -CC] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- On Wed, 8 Aug 2001, Anonymous <remailer@remailer.xganon.com> wrote: [SNIP] >Now I want to use a chain of remailers?

Taken as an example, chaining through two remailers thus, You -> A -> B -> Recipient You start off with your message and prefix with :: Anon-To: <recipient@somewhere> ## Subject: <some text> <MESSAGE> You then encrypt this with the key of the remailer B, and prefix it with :: Anon-To: <Remailer-B@somewhere> :: Encrypted: PGP <PGP MESSAGE> You take this and encrypt it with the key of remailer A, and prefix with :: Encrypted: PGP and now send it to remailer A. What happens then is that remailer A takes the message, decodes it, and sends it to remailer B. Remailer B decodes it and sends it to the recipient.
